1762 KBC Networks, manufacturer of industrial transmission equipment for analogue, IP and high definition transmission systems, has expanded its industrial Ethernet switch range with a series of Power over Ethernet (PoE) switches.

With the PoE data ports on the switch supplying power directly to the attached networked device, the new additions to the KBC IP transmission range make new installations and system adds faster, easier and more flexible. The units are designed for a wide range of industrial, non-conditioned and outdoor applications with extended operating temperature ranges and hardened casings. Depending on the switch selected, the switches are either IEEE 802.3af or the higher powered IEEE 802.3at compliant, which is suitable for most PTZ cameras.

Combined with the company’s new WESII wireless range, KBC claims the new switches are ideal for rapid and temporary deployments, as well as installations that require the minimum of disruption such as traffic and town centre camera systems.
